‘Drop Dead Diva’ will end after sixth season

Lifetime’s Drop Dead Diva will be coming to a close following the conclusion of the sixth season.

Last January the network had cancelled the series when it completed its fourth season but it was brought back for a fifth and sixth season because of budget changes and a new production plan with Sony, Variety reported.

Drop Dead Diva tells the story of a model who dies suddenly and finds her soul resurfacing in the body of a plus-sized very intelligent attorney. Brooke Elliott stars in the show as the diva.

Diva was created by Josh Berman who is also an executive producer on the show. Craig Zadan, Neil Meron and Robert J. Wilson also produce the show for Lifetime.

The Wrap reported that the show recently had to shut down production in Atlanta because of a very serious weather threat. Guest stars had already arrived flown in for their roles on the show but production was stopped.
